XP Criteria - Signal/Noise?by Russ (Deacon) |

I like BBQ's ideas
about limiting votes/rewards for voting out, and his
signal/noise comment pinpointed a nagging idea I've had...
What about awarding XP based on signal/noise? Perhaps if + votes >= # of posts...? This would certainly encourage quality posts, discourage "noise" and "me too" posts, and give a very real reward to those who go out of the way to produce thoughtful and helpful posts. Number of posts is currently a primary measure of a monk's worth, but shouldn't we also reward the less wordy, but more thoughtful monks among us? This would be even more effective if there were fewer non-posting ways to earn XP, but... Russ
